In response to Council questions, City Manager Everett advised that this project had top priority for some time and the specifications were done and ready to go to bid. Mr. Everett explained that funding for this project was mostly dependent on the General Improvement District facilities fees that come from property taxes and the poor economy had caused a delay; but, a plan had been developed for the City to provide the money to fund the project now and be repaid from GID facilities fees later on. Councilman Greenalch thanked Mrs. Fox and the petitioners in the audience and advised that he and his colleagues had not been aware of this situation until the petition arrived; and, asked Mrs. Fox, or anyone with a problem, to please contact a member of the Council first and let him or her be an advocate for you before going to all the hard work of circulating and presenting a petition. (101-05) C. Mr. Jay White, President of the California Pilots Association and member of the San Carlos Airport Pilot Association, asked Council to set a public hearing to receive comment on the issuance of building permits for the proposed Hastings Condominiums by Woodson Development at 300 Redwood Shores Parkway, one-half mile from the San Carlos Airport. Mr. White asserted that, based on the noise analysis done and included in the Negative Declaration, a health problem would exist due to the 80 db average noise level caused by airport related sounds. (203-09) Councilman Greenalch advised that this issue was discussed at the City/County Association of Governments meeting of March 11th that he attended and he would give a complete report and disclose C/CAG's recommendations at the appropriate time under Matters of Council Interest this evening. John Hannah, representing the Woodson Development Company, asked if he would be allowed to speak at that time, and Mayor Buchan assured him he would be allowed to speak. D. Don Davis, Chairman of the Redwood City Park and Recreation Commission invited everyone to attend the Tuesday, March 23rd meeting to discuss the future of Red Morton Center. City Attorney Schricker reminded Councilmembers of the prohibitions of the Brown Act and advised that if they did attend, they listen to input only, as they will be the ultimate decision makers on this project. Councilmembers acknowledged their responsibilities under the Brown Act. E. William Conklin, member of the Board of the Downtown Association, advised the Council that the Association had filed a cross complaint to one filed in January, 1993 against the Association; and the request for an injunction will address the issue that appears on this meeting's Consent Calendar, the proposed art and wine festivals in September.
